UNLESS - unless they are in an exceptionally good mood all the time, which is just as conducive to good health as good food.

(It's why I'm so healthy).

No, not really, Moira, just now and then. I greedily eat two oranges, for instance, once a year. Eat loads of nettles this time of year. Otherwise eggs and cheese, jelly sandwiches, beans from a can.

Main thing is that ALL food tastes wonderful to me. I can go as long as 24 hours before I feel hungry, but I can also eat three meals and love all the food.

I will start feeling old when food and coffee and cigarettes are just habits and don't really excite me, as they do now.

(Guess it's about time to open a can of beans and heat it up).

(P.S. Watch for Danish movies! They are getting to be SO good that people that love to go to the movies are flocking to them in droves instead of to the international ones.

The last two I've seen are "The Bench" and, last night, "A Real Human Being". First about a drunk and the second about an imaginary big brother who appears in Denmark. A mythic movie.)

good set of genes (not all of us are so lucky)

We make some pretty good movies here too.

they both always complain of poor health. She looks bad most of the time and always has
to talk about how she feels. He does not say much unless probed, but I remember seeing
one day a little sliver of tomato on his dinner plate.
and once she invited me when she had also invited 2 other ladies. Again, the menu
was various meats and cheeses, not any veg or fruits. When I carefully ventured to
mention that, the hostess said those guests would not eat veg or fruit. OH? Oh, really?
how would a hostess know that about a couple of strangers?
I sometimes give them a head of lettuce or such, but I wonder if they really eat
that?

but I don't think my diet is so wonderful that it is THAT that keeps me still alive at
85. I think there is some other reason.

maybe so. I can't say I am in always a good mood.

Partly I suppose it is the good genes your parents obviously passed on
to you copled with a generally sensible lifestyle.
